\opening{Dear Mr.Landau,}
\closing{Yours faithfully,}
\makelettertitle
I have been advised that you were looking for a GNSS R\&D Specialist what caught my interest especially. Indeed, I am working as a GNSS software expert in the field of defense and aerospace since 2010. Considering the similitudes between my actual position and the profile you are requesting I sincerely think that we might take significant advantages to work together. Finally I would be really excited to put my skills to Trimble, known for being a leading company within the GNSS world.

My education path brought me with a high level background regarding electronic and signal processing. This gave me the taste and interest for algorithmic aspects and later for applications related to GNSS, for which acquisition and signal tracking is a fundamental. Currently working on GNSS applications, I am in charge of writing some of the core functions of aeronautics receivers, and qualify them through mathematical models. Furthermore, my two years of living in Germany offered me ability and the willing to work into a multicultural context.

Throughout my career, I had the opportunity to develop my knowledge about how to wright strong code. I have been in the position to define software functional specifications in a object oriented manner. Then I decided to get more in depth within code writing and I am today recognized as a C++ expert. At THALES Avionics, I had the chance to work along in a agile team with deep integration of modern development methods such as lean, test driven coding, iterative and incremental driving coupled with continuous integration.

I believe that my skills and ability for teamwork make me an ideal candidate for the GNSS R\&D Specialist position. Living in France, I can make myself available for a phone call at the most convenient time to you.

Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to talking with you.
